	Adventures of Huckleberry Finn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The drifting journey of Huck and his friend Jim, a runaway slave, down the Mississippi River on their raft, may be one of the most enduring images of escape and freedom in all of American literature.
		He meets Jim, a slave who is about to be sold down the river and separated from his wife and children, and they attempt to go down the Mississippi River and then up the Ohio to freedom.
		In fact, it is repeatedly shown that Jim, the fugitive slave, is one of the only characters in the novel with a conscience.

		Slave Master is the agent through which his slaves are empowered to express our highest good, contribute all of our gifts and embrace our destinies with faith and obedience that overrides fear of disappointment, fear of failure, fear of looking or feeling foolish, fear of what people think.
		This slave has been slogging along his path for nearly forty years- what is new is that the path has revealed its name, "Slavery." The name the path has taken is new (and startling), but the longing, the searching, the bouts of frustration and depression, the temptation to give up, are not.
		This slave has been a spiritual pilgrim for the last 30 years, going where he is led, down many paths, through many experiences, always feeling called, never feeling certain he had actually found what he was being called to.

	The Original Jim Crow
		The phrase "Jim Crow" began as a character in a song, but by the late 1800s the words were used to describe a set of laws and customs that nullified amendments to the Constitution and oppressed fls.
		John Thorp, a cultural anthropologist at the Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia at Ferris State University in Big Rapids, Mich., said a song sung by fls in the early 19th century poked fun at Jim Crow, a slave master, and a law that said fls couldn't dance by shuffling their feet.
		The Jim Crow system, in existence from the 1830s to the 1950s, resulted in a "racial etiquette" that was meant to oppress fls and prevent them from gaining economic, social or political power.

		Jim is a slave owned by Miss Watson, the sister of the woman who's caring for Huck.
		Jim is illiterate, superstitious, and afraid of unnamed forces, characteristics that are the subject of some of the comedy in the book.
		And in spite of Jim's simplicity, naivete, and childish superstitions, Twain is able to use him as a vehicle for a powerful indictment of the institution of slavery.

	Pictures of Jim
		Every illustrator must "see Jim" in order to draw him, and at the same time their various illustrations together say a lot about the way that American book-makers and book-buyers have imagined the African American slave.
		Since Jim is illiterate (it was against the law in Missouri to teach slaves to read) Kemble might have meant for him to be looking at the pictures; if so, you have to wonder what he would have said about the way he's drawn.
		Thomas Hart Benton included Huck and Jim in the mural he painted at the Missouri State Capitol in 1936 and so made a slave trying to escape from Missouri a visible part of the state's past.

	RACE TRAITOR \| Huckleberry Finn Symposium, Summer 1993 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The slave narrative followed a more or less standard form: it began with the horrors of life under slavery, described how the idea of freedom germinated and took shape in the writer's mind, recounted the escape from slavery, and concluded with a statement of the writer's hopes for a new life.
		By treating Jim as a friend and an equal, Huck shows that he rejects the common interpretation of the Bible, that fls are inferior to whites.
		Huck and Jim, as they escape from The Shore and embark upon the raft traveling down river, become good friends, equal in their respect and love for one another, equal in their desire to "light out"' and equal in social status.

		Having a slave means that I have a person who obeys my directives and improves the efficiency of my household and it is my choice as to how that is accomplished..
		The fact that I finally agreed to its creation is not the result of a nagging slave, for she does not do that and I would not tolerate it if she did.
		One of slave marsha's strengths is the ability to generate new ideas and approaches to communication.

		Jim a slave that is not even considered as a real person, but as property.
		Eventually Huck plays a mean trick on Jim and we see Huck begin to change his attitude, "It was fifteen minutes before I could work myself up to go and humble myself to a nigger; but I done it, and I warn't ever sorry for it afterward, neither".
		Through the adventure Huck Finn and Jim are trying to find the one thing they can only find on the river, freedom, but a person can only stay on the river for so long, and so you have to go on land to face the injustices of society.

		Before the emancipation proclamation freed the slaves, before schooling was widespread, when people for the aforementioned reasons were exploited for their ignorance to the world around them.
		I forgot to mention it before but it always bothers me that Jim is not introduced in the first scene that introduces every other character, I think that would establish his character earlier and make his friendship with Huck easier to understand because it wouldn’t come out of the blue.
		The first line that Jim sings is, "I see the same stars through my window that you see through yours…but we’re worlds apart." I think that’s why Jim respects Huck’s friendship so much is because he knows that Huck shouldn’t be his friend, but that doesn’t matter to him.

		Jim, who makes dramatic appearances throughout her novel, is drawn with great sensitivity -- a man trying against all odds to be a good husband and father, despite being kept from his family by his mistress, Miss Watson, and later being pursued as a runaway by white "patrollers."
		In "My Jim," a woman boasts to Sadie that she has escaped the worst rigors of slavery by producing babies for her master, yet she dies in childbirth at a young age, rarely having even seen her children.
		The continuity between the slaves and their spirit ancestors is one of the few sources of hope in which Sadie can take refuge.

	The Jim Dilemma
		The author of The Jim Dilemma argues that Twain's novel, in the tradition of all great literature, is invaluable for transporting readers to a time, place, and conflict essential to understanding who we are today.
		Jim, along with other fl characters in the book, demands a rethinking and a re-envisioning of the southern slave, for Huckleberry Finn, she contends, ultimately questions readers' notions of what freedom means and what it costs.
		As she shows that Twain portrayed Jim as nobody's fool, she focuses her discussion on both sides of the Jim dilemma and unflinchingly defends the importance of keeping the book in the classroom.

	Edgeliving: Master Jim and slave marsha
		So, when slave marsha uses these pronouns a bit too frequently, I caution her about the “I, We and Our Syndrome.” In contrast, avoiding these pronouns seems to help slave marsha keep her focus on who she is and what makes this relationship different, further supporting the M/s dynamic.
		So far, I have only addressed the need for the slave to be careful with language, but in fact, the Master must be mindful of language as well — both the slave’s language and his or her own.
		You cannot make a person into a Master or a slave if that is not who they are, if Master or slave is not their “I am.” It is a primary part of our journey to discover who we are and then to live that life.

	Questions
		Q : Huckleberry Finn was published in 1885 and one of the main characters is Jim, the slave.
		He has perhaps dealt with these types of slaves as he had first hand experience of their lives and situation.
		Although you do get a flavor of how difficult it is for a slave to escape to the Free states at the time, he has not seen this struggle through to its end as he announces that Jim has obtained his freedom in the Will of his owner.
